    I prefer even numbers myself, and if I end up with 5 kids, I'll not be too happy, lol!

    I prefer 27 (my age ;-)). Great lens. This lens has been blessed by the maths angel and added to my best maths resources lens.

    Chanel No 5, I believe that there never have been 1-4

    This is a really fun lens. How you thought up this cool idea is a MYSTERY. Blessed. MMmmm...number 5 Chanel fragrance beats everything.

    Hail Eris! :-) Five is also sacred to Eris, the somewhat misunderstood Goddess of chaos. Sometimes things have to be shaken up a little to create new possibilities, you know? LOL . Cool Lens!

    The number 5 is important for me according to numerology, I also see 5's a lot especially 555...I never thought about 5 in so many ways before!

    OK, I'm convinced about the law of fives. Never thought of fives in so many ways until I read this lens. "Liked" it.

    From looking at your sums from your personal 5 i would be more interested in how many times the number 14 appears..
  • Drewman5 Apr 13, 2009 @ 5:15 pm | delete
    I like the number 5 for the following reasons: I wore the number for the ARC Raiders bball team, my DOB is 1/29/1973 ({32}; 3 2=5).
  • Sgt.B Nov 5, 2008 @ 2:34 pm | delete
    My badge number is five and I got married in May 2005. I am very protective of this number in my life. Thanks for the site.
  • Vik Capella Oct 13, 2008 @ 9:39 am | delete
    The date of my birth is January 13, 1955 - added it equals 25 that's 5 squared, add the 13 55 that equals 68 - 6 8 = 14 - 1 4 = 5.
  • elaine Jul 21, 2008 @ 10:07 pm | delete
    I have 5 E's in my full name my b-day is the 5th.day of the 5th month full birthday equals 5x5 or 25,in 2005 I had a necklace charm of the # 5 made,I wear it a lot, it was supposed to be my sunshine year, it was a pretty good year
  • Sunfish Jun 13, 2008 @ 10:19 am | delete
    I love this lens. What a fabulous idea. I wonder what could be made of other numbers?
  • rwoman May 6, 2008 @ 7:55 pm | delete
    I got married on May 5. How's that?
  • flowergardener May 6, 2008 @ 5:37 am | delete
    Hi Birthday Buddy! This is a very cool lens, and I learned a lot more on our number. It is so interesting to look at how numbers intertwine with our lives, and sometimes make themselves very obvious :)
    This is neat, being born also on September 5th (9 5=14, 1 4=5)
    your daughter's numbers add up to 5,
    as does my son's (1 13=14, 1 4=5)

    my oddity is that my home address holds both my birthdate and my son's. 513

    Funny - I was visiting mum today and she pointed to her calendar and asked me. What is this celebration mentioned on here? "Chinco de Mayo" - I did not know. BLAM! You got it! And you also got LOD! Congratulations. 5 stars (of course) fav'd, fan already and lensrolled to my Staycation lens.

    What a fun lens!

    Hi Christine, I love this lens. I now know more about 5's than I thought was out there. 5*'s from me for a job well done.
  • iSnorrie Dec 17, 2007 @ 2:00 pm | delete
    Absolutely amazing that the number 5 is so cool! Thanks for sharing :-)

    And a high-five for you!
  • rms Nov 29, 2007 @ 9:02 am | delete
    5 is my favorite number!
  • Greekgeek Aug 20, 2007 @ 1:15 pm | delete
    Also, Russ Martin of the Dodgers, #55, started his career on Cinco de Mayo, and he's become an instant sensation as a "5 tool" catcher!
  • Greekgeek Aug 20, 2007 @ 1:11 pm | delete
    Another religion: in wicca and other earth-based spiritualities, 5 is the sacred #, representing earth, air, fire, water, and spirit (usually drawn as a pentacle).
  • Ronbo2007 Jul 28, 2007 @ 2:35 pm | delete
    Very Interesting!
  • Jul 27, 2007 @ 4:27 am | delete
    I agree with generationzip, 5 is great and so is 3! :-) PS A movie you missed out on is called V for Vendetta (the V stands for 5!)
  • Susan52 Jun 14, 2007 @ 10:56 am | delete
    I love this fun 5-star lens!
    5 is also nice when it's followed by a 2, as in Susan52 or my52cents (that's me). :-)

    Cool, but tip your cap to Robert Anton Wilson and the Discordians, don't ya think?

    What a brilliant lens! Can I feature it on my education lenses?

    "A man and a woman had a little baby,
    Yes, they did.
    They had three in the family,
    And that's a magic number."

    That's on my Only Children lens!
  • generationzip Mar 19, 2007 @ 6:17 pm | delete
    I love it! A 5 star rating for a Number Five lens! I also lensrolled you to my Schoolhouse Rock lens. Although 5 is good, just remember that 3 is a Magic Number! :-)
  • Christene Mar 19, 2007 @ 12:09 pm | delete
    That's a great idea...thanks :)
  • KimberlyDawnWells Mar 19, 2007 @ 8:48 am | delete
    Very fun!! Cute idea. You might be able to boost your traffic from educators by offering a few links to sites with resources for teaching about the number five.
